BEAUTIFUL, CHIC RENOVATION IN GLEN OAKS MANOR. Stylish décor, open plan, and large screen courtyard all come together to make this a special home. Renovated by Tidmore-Henry design firm in 2005, then upgraded again with this owner. Rich Brazilian cherrywood floors throughout (except kitchen and baths), plantation shutters, custom valances, crown moldings, built-in bookcases in living room and master bedroom sitting room, recessed lighting are just a few of the design elements. Great kitchen with raisedpanel cabinets with glass doors and drawers for storage, granite counters, subway tile for backsplash, stainless appliances and pass-thru to living area. Master bedroom has been extended and opens to the courtyard so you have a cozy sitting area, large walk-in closet and windows along the back wall that give you a peak of the lake (private wall, does not back to another unit). Master bath has pedestal sink and shower. Open up the sliding doors and enjoy the screened courtyard as living space, brick deck on level with the inside! This owner has used the family room as a dining room and included a large desk in the living room. The atrium opens to the living room. Inviting guest bedroom and bath. Two car garage has stairs that lead to loft/storage area above garage. Pretty gardens lead to front entry. Great location in Sarasota, convenient to downtown, Lido Beach, several golf courses and all amenities offered along the University Parkway corridor.
